Ukraїner: Ukrainian Insider
by Bogdan Logvynenko
«Ukraïner. Ukrainian Insider» is the print edition of the ambitious digital media project Ukraïner (ukrainer.net) based on our 2016–2018 expedition throughout all the historic regions of Ukraine: from Sloboda Ukraine in the east to Podillia in the southwest, and Volyn in the northwest to Tavriia in the south. In this book we feature the most striking and memorable moments of our exploration as we intend to share with the world many unique places within Ukraine and the stories of the remarkable Ukrainians who live there. Evocative photography both showcases these stories and reveal Ukraine as authentic, surprising, and exciting country. Bogdan Logvinenko is the initiator of the project.

Der Pfau
Roman
by Isabel Bogdan
Ein charmant heruntergekommener Landsitz in den schottischen Highlands, ein völlig durchgedrehter Pfau, der bei blau nur noch rotsieht, und ein bunt zusammengewürfelter Haufen Leute, dazu ein überraschender Wintereinbruch, ein Kurzschluss und die ein oder andere Verwechslung – und schon ist das Chaos perfekt! Pointenreich, very british und urkomisch erzählt Isabel Bogdan von einem Wochenende, an dem alles anders kommt als geplant: Eine Gruppe Investmentbanker reist samt ambitionierter Psychologin und erfindungsreicher Köchin aus London an, um in der ländlichen Abgeschiedenheit bei einer Teambildungsmaßnahme die Zusammenarbeit zu verbessern. Doch das spartanische Ambiente und ein verrückt gewordener Pfau bringen sie dabei gehörig aus dem Konzept. Und nicht nur sie: Denn die pragmatische Problemlösung des Hausherrn Lord McIntosh setzt ein Geschehen in Gang, das sämtliche Beteiligte an die Grenzen ihrer nervlichen Belastbarkeit bringt. So britisch-unterhaltsam ist in deutscher Sprache noch nicht erzählt worden!

De-centering queer theory
Communist sexuality in the flow during and after the Cold War
by Bogdan Popa, Gurminder Bhambra
De-centering queer theory seeks to reorient queer theory to a different conception of bodies and sexuality derived from Eastern European Marxism. The book articulates a contrast between the concept of the productive body, which draws its epistemology from Soviet and avant-garde theorists, and Cold War gender, which is defined as the social construction of the body. The first part of the book concentrates on the theoretical and visual production of Eastern European Marxism, which proposed an alternative version of sexuality to that of western liberalism. In doing so it offers a historical angle to understand the emergence not only of an alternative epistemology, but also of queer theory's vocabulary. The second part of the book provides a Marxist, anti-capitalist archive for queer studies, which often neglects to engage critically with its liberal and Cold War underpinnings.

Ukraine from above (in English)
by Bogdan Logvynenko (idea), Volodymyr Gavrysh (design)
Over several years of expeditions, the Ukraїner team took thousands of photos of Ukraine from a drone. Many different screens have already seen our footage: from Ukrzaliznytsia (Ukrainian Railways) to city buses in Warsaw. With the help of these images, we aim to share the beauty of Ukraine with the world. This photo book shows Ukraine from a bird's eye view. Fields, forests, coasts, snow-capped mountains, patterns of city streets – all these shots show amazing diversity and cause aesthetic awe. Despite the fact that enemy shells are still flying in the Ukrainian sky, we are already trying to make the whole world fall in love with it. The book is published only in English and is called “Ukraine from above”.
